The statement that correctly summarizes the trend in electron affinity is the second option: it tends to be more negative across a period".<span> Electron affinity is the energy absorbed or released by a neutral atom when it absorbs an electron. The more negative the electron affinity the higher the affinity of the atom for an additional electron. So as the electronegativity trends to increase across a period, indicating that the atoms of the left side pull stronger the electrons, the fact that the electron affinity is more negative across a period tells that the atoms to the left accept better an additional electron.</span>
Answer:
Given theoretical yield of NH3 is 945g.
The actual yield is 598g.
What is the %yield?
Explanation:
%yield of a chemical reaction can be calculated by using the formula:
Substitute the given values in this formula to get the %yield.
Hence, the %yield for the formation of ammonia is ---- 63.3.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
When a strip of zinc metal is placed into a blue solution of copper(II) nitrate, a reaction immediately begins as the zinc strip begins to darken. If left in the solution for a longer period of time, the zinc will gradually decay due to oxidation to zinc ions.
<span>pm stands for picometer and picometers are units which can be used to measure really tiny distances. One picometer is equal to 10^{-12} meters. We know that one centimeter is equal to 10^{-2} m so there are 10^2 cm per meter.
We can change the distance d = 115 pm to units of centimeters.
d = (115 pm) x (10^{-12}m / pm) x (10^2 cm / m)
d = 115 x 10^{-10} cm = 1.15 x 10^{-8} cm
The distance in centimeters is 1.15 x 10^{-8} cm</span>
